Avocent PM3000 0U Vertical 3-ph 16A 380/400/415V PM3004V-401 プリント

PM2000 & PM3000 intelligent Power Distribution units (IPDUs) support outlet level metering and 

switching capability to provide datacenter professionals the tools they need to monitor, measure, reduce, 

and manage their growing power consumption costs of IT equipment.  Thresholds can be created to 

allow datacenter teams to know before problems occur and minimize downtime caused by overloaded 

circuits. With the ability to support up to 22 kW and support for C19 outlets, the PM2000 and PM3000 

IPDUs are well positioned to support the high rack density found in organizations today. 

Measure power at the Outlet level 

Outlet level metering and switching capability provides datacenter professionals the tools they need to 

monitor, measure, reduce and chargeback their growing power consumption costs of IT equipment while 

minimizing any downtime that could potentially be caused by overloaded circuits or hung up IT equipment.

Metering/Switching capabilities 

Capture valuable information and control power to individual devices 

• Metering per outlet with the PM2000 IPDUs

• Metering and switching per outlet with PM3000 IPDUs

Alarms and monitoring

The Avocent PM2000 and PM3000 IPDUs deliver accurate, real-time current monitoring of all 

connected devices via the web manager, DSView® 3 software or locally through an LED digital display. 

Users can set a current alarm threshold that, once exceeded, will cause the PM PDU to sound an alarm 

or send a notifi cation message, or both.

Flexible management options

Avocent IPDUs can be combined with an ACS 6000 console server or DSR® KVM over IP switch to 

provide faster problem solving by integrating system access and power control in a single interface. Now 

you can see the remote devices and control their power using an integrated approach that allows you 

to actually see the remote device as it powers up or reboots. This integration provides instant feedback 

when critical issues are being resolved remotely.

DSView 3 management software integration

The DSView 3 software provides access and control to nearly all equipment found in today’s data 

centers. The DSView 3 Power Manager extends the capability of the DSView 3 software by also giving 

companies the ability to monitor and measure IT energy consumption, costs, and trends across all levels 

within their data centers and remote locations. With the PM2000 & PM3000 IPDUs this information 

can allow you to look at individual devices, a rack of equipment, a row of equipment and group items 

together to view overall consumptions, capacity and cost across many locations or just a single device.
